Error messages in Firefox

Adobe made an update to Flash Player recently that may cause an issue for YouTube on Firefox.

If you're running into error messages frequently using Flash 11.3 on Firefox, please be sure to read and follow the troubleshooting steps in this FAQ from the Adobe Forum. More information can be found there.

Just disable your realplayer if you have realplayer, Mozilla posted a blocked for realplayer download plugin, that is what messing up YouTube and adobe Flash player. I posted a copy of Mozilla in detailed, tonfind out what just the ME, MIND BOGGLED.

all the sudden whle just in forefox i get an error occurred please try again later. I reinstalled the latest version of bith firefox and abobe flash player. Here is the bug copied:hl=en%5FUS&debug%5Fdate=Mon%20Jun%2018%2013%3A27%3A45%20GMT%2D0400%202012&droppedFrames=0&uga=m54&rendering=software&decoding=null&vid=MPGou63CouSkg5ta%5FWEMsxOuV%2D%2DxJG10R&debug%5Ferror=%5BErrorEvent%20type%3D%22error%22%20bubbles%3Dfalse%20cancelable%3Dfalse%20eventPhase%3D2%20text%3D%22NetStream%2EPlay%2EStreamNotFound%22%5D&volume=100&referrer=http%253A%252F%252Fwww%2Eyoutube%2Ecom%252F&tpmt=0&cfps=0&tsphab=0&nsiempty=1&screenw=1920&tspne=1&screenh=1080&tspfdt=0&el=embedded&playerw=573&sdetail=f%253Ag%2Dall%2Ds%252Cp%253A%252F&playerh=349&debug%5FvideoId=ZtaAHgGueik&sendtmp=1&debug%5FsourceData=&pd=0&vq=auto&erc=3&mos=0&fmt=34&cr=US&csipt=watch5&debug%5FplaybackQuality=medium&h=322&stageFps=10&sourceid=y&scoville=1&debug%5FflashVersion=WIN%2011%2C3%2C300%2C257&feature=g%2Dall%2Ds&w=573&plid=AATCwnsSqGvWmbBL&videoFps=0&subscribed=1&fs=0&fexp=920704%2C921602%2C912804%2C913542%2C907335%2C922600%2C919306%2C909703%2C911633%2C912706%2C919316%2C907217%2C919324%2C906717

Hmm... seems to me like this is basically an attack on users by adobe to stop you from downloading videos. Probably at the request of some content providers. I could be wrong but it's just the first thing that came to mind after reading the solution of their site.

Mine goes like this :cl=0&stacktrace=null&ts=1340300341&debug%5FflashVersion=WIN%2011%2C3%2C300%2C262&stageFps=10&debug%5Fdate=Mon%20Jun%2025%2019%3A12%3A19%20GMT%2B0800%202012&debug%5FvideoId=1qLePhm%2DxGs&droppedFrames=0&debug%5FsourceData=&debug%5FplaybackQuality=small&videoFps=0

I followed your advice and disabled the Real Player downloading add-on from my Firefox browser.

Unfortunately, nothing happened. You Tube still doesn't work and the error code keeps appearing on screen.

Did I operate in the right manner, is there anything else I could try?

Whoever has the right answer is welcomed, even though I'm loosing faith in this Google Products Forum.

Why aren't we getting an official answer from some Senior Google Expert, rather than counting on this sort of vague/fake democracy/anarchy?

For instance, is anybody able to tell me if the operation described in the Post of jlot8almahska of June 19 - to uninstall the Flash Player Programme - is right and not an harmful manoeuvre for other features of my PC?

Thanking everybody in advance for any useful suggestions, best regards,

I just got off the phone with Real Player tech support (India) and the guy told me that they are still working on fixing the problem with it conflicting with YouTube on Firefox, but he could not give me an ETA for when they might resolve it. At least Chrome and every other browser still works with Real Player, but I uninstalled it from my PC anyway, I'm just going to wait until they fix it.

My problem was that after upgrading to version 11.3.300.262 the videos would not play and the player controls were gone. I tried the work-arounds on the Adobe site but nothing helped. I re-installed version 10.3.183.20 and all is well. I am no programmer but I see no reason at this time to disable a feature of another program because Flash Player doesn't work properly.

this is what I have learnt so far during these days of You Tube/Firefox failure.

By my experience, the only ways to restore You Tube functions into a Firefox browser are:

- through uninstalling completely the programme Real Player from your computer

- through re-installing the previous version of Flash Player, the 10.3.183.20

How and when we can recoup Real Player is another matter.Just yesterday I read a post about somebody who has talked to Real Player and it seems that they are aware of this conflict with Firefox and trying to fix it. We will see.

YouTube will be spread across masses of servers and they all need to be fixed, so it probably depends what server you hit as to whether it works or not. At present I can't get one video to play, but it's not a PC or Adobe issue.

@JWPepper - if time had something to do with it, then this issue would have started at the moment of the leap second - NOT 2 weeks ago.It would also affect everyone who lives on your planet - but this particular issue seems to only affect people who have the Real Player Downloaderhooked to their browser.

I don't have it installed on any browser and have not had no trouble at all - new version of Flash, old version of Flash, new version of Chrome, Firefox....old version........

so @Educational - the trouble if you are having it is most likely tied into some extension or add-on to your browser, so the obviouse thing to do as the people have already stated above - either run the browser in Safe ( Incognito ) mode with no etensions running - especially Real Player or any others using simular technology. Then get rid of the one causing the trouble.

my problem is. any video whether im sign in or not.. the video does not appear.. it will shows error message such as "An error has occured.Please try again later".. but my adobe flash player is the newest version.please help me to solve this matter..thank you..

my problem is, any video, whether im signing in or not,. the video does not appear, it shows error message "An error has occured, Please try again later"..ive try checking the adobe flash player version and it turns out the newest version, so, is bit curious on why this happening.. as the requirement are according the right requirement..

You have one extremely unhappy user - I am not a techy. I just want to use a product securely. I have wasted hours at the weekend and now today trying to become a technical expert in order simply to watch a video on Firefox, my preferred browser.

I find you dumped me into some HTML experiment without informing me and I have done all sorts of thing following various incomprehensible instructions which have probably created worse problems for me elsewhere. I simply want to watch a video - I don't want to watch a better video, just a video. Did you not speak with Adobe before it screwed up the system - do you not talk to each other?

I also had several problems but finally found the correct solution. I actually found it on firefox site. I think the following is the steps I took. I had recently downloaded 'realplayer' and that is when the problems started. Try this: Flash videos or games on sites like Facebook or YouTube may appear, black, white or grey and never play

A recent version of Flash doesn't work with RealPlayer. See Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox for more information.Note: RealPlayer includes a Web Download & Recording feature that adds a Browser Record Plugin extension to Firefox. This causes problems with Flash content if Flash Player 11.3 is installed. If you don't use this feature, you can turn it off to avoid problems (see Flash 11.3 doesn't load video in Firefox). If you want to keep using this feature, another option is to uninstall Adobe Flash Player 11.3 and install an earlier Flash version as a temporary solution. See How do I revert to a previous version of Flash Player? on the Adobe forum for detailed instructions and download links. (Adobe's uninstaller removes the Flash Player ActiveX for Internet Explorer as well as the Flash Player Plugin for Firefox and other browsers, so you will need to reinstall both.)

Eventually, I gave up on Firefox, having tried everything recommended and wasyed half a day uninstalling and installing pretty well everything, losing Realplayer and fooling around with Add-Ons!

Spent the weekend shunting bookmarks across to Chrome where I even solved a Google Reader problem and discovered that it was better than I remembered it once I sorted out synching.

I feel sorry for Firefox because it was a good product and infinitely better than Internet Explorer but it was not the only problem I had over the four days - weird synching problems, chaos over android (no replacement for an uninstall that I tried to deal with a synch) and truly dreadful communications.

Firefox and Realplayer really need to give Adobe one helluva a bad time. I have uninstalled Realplayer because of this and can't be bothered to reinstall it and I would never have tried Chrome if Adobe had not screwed up Firefox.

Adobe upset me anyway by stuffing McAfee down my throat sand causing problems earlier in the year - so roll on any Google plans to by-pass it altogether! But what a mess! And not even YouTube's fault in the end!

Do yourself a favor and import your bookmarks into chrome. It's not worth it. Firefox has had all sorts of ridiculous problems with flash and youtube for YEARS, they haven't done a thing about it. It's a shame because firefox used to be my favorite browser.

You may quit the html5 test (in which you are in by deffault) and keep using the old flash sysyem by going to http://www.youtube.com/html5/ until firefox supports everything needed to run the test. That fixed my problem.

You're right but the info is also ni the description of the video. Anyway I'll try to to post what was said.

"If your system shows an error when trying to play flash videos in
Firefox, and you have our Downloader extension installed, you have run
into a compatibility issue with Adobe's latest Flash release"

"You
can fix the issue with playback and use the RealNetwork's Video
Downloader extension in Firefox by disabling Adobe Flash's protected
mode."

"To do this, you must edit Adobe Flash's mms.cfg file."

On 64-bit windows, you can find the file in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\Macromed\FlashOn 32-bit windows, the file will be in C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash

To
edit, first close Firefox. Next, open Notepad in Administrator mode (right click on notepad to find the run as administrator option) as
seen in the video (You don't need to open the file with special
permissions on Windows XP). Then, open the mms.cfg file from the
appropriate directory.

Add ProtectedMode=0 to the last line in
the file (meaning press enter at the end of the second line to start a new under it and then type it in). Save and close. You will have to repeat these steps and delete
this line to re-enable protected mode.

your problem same with me thank an

I am having an absolute nervous fucking breakdown! I can't even WATCH YOU TUBE AT ALL! I get a page of gibberish, and nothing is helping. Install, uninstall, I don't know what the fuck I'm doing, and if this is caused by updating adobe, someone there needs a good killing! NOTHING HAS HELPED!!!! CANNOT EVEN VIEW IN IE!!!! Why has google and it's affiliates gotten so IMPOSSIBLE to use????

Mine is doing that too. Started today. I went to another computer to check and it worked fine but then started acting up as well after a few minutes. I'm glad to see I'm not alone. Very frustrating but maybe they will fix it soon. Lets hang in!

Bull. I'm still having the Http/1.1 Service Unavailable issue on Comodo Dragon. Same with Internet Explorer as much as I loathed using that thing to check. YouTube is just crashing hardcore apparently.

today i uploaded a video - nothing works anymore. i did not change anything, there *was* an update running, i just don't remember whether ff or thunderbird.but it happens with IE as well.i can still watch other peoples' movies, but i cannot access my own channel, edit videos and such.quite annoying, indeed!

Please Google & YouTube employees... you are all very smart and very well paid. All I want is reliable service from your website that doesn't require me to have an advanced degree to troubleshoot (or post to a forum that you'll never read anyway). Think you can do that for us? Just make it work! And then you can go back to riding tricycles around your corporate campus and stuffing your face at your gourmet cafeterias. We thank you.

I have some problems when I want to watch videos.I'm in France.I tried to watch videos with FireFox and Chrome on 2 differents computers.The videos didn't launchIt stay at the black screen before the pub launch.When the video don't have pub before, it works fine.

Are you facing only for particular video or all videos.Are you using Internet Direct connection or in company/school.If your accessing youtube in company/school they may be blocked.if not.Check out your firewall, allow access to youtube.

The problem is experienced by at least thousands of people and is plastered all over this forum, with no answer from a google Representative. It is also discussed on many many other places on the internet.

This problem is consistent and reproducible. The test video loads at 20,000kpbs bu any other video loads between 0kbps and 2,000, max. The download graph looks like a heartbeat sensor!!!

I really want to use Youtube but this experience is absolutely souring my love for it. PLEASE HELP US!!!
